Hello everybody, In one week, I shoot my first hologram (if I get all components). I'm so exciting already :-) If have a short question : Can I use a black light bulb (with a dimmer) as safe light for holography. Since the "color" of this light is near ultra-purple, I think that can work. More, a bulb costs only $1.25 Is somebody already try this ? Thank you. Jean

I have not tried a black light but I have a "limelight" under my table. You probably should not expose film directly to it but it has very little red. It is a very inexpensive night light. If you look through some of the back posts you will find some gel numbers you can get to make lights "Safe". 64.167.149.245
